I'd get a beefier PSU whilst you're building up, in case you decide to add a second GTX in a few weeks/months time. If you know you'll never do it then fine but if you think you may, I'd spend a little more now and go a little higher on the PSU.

Looks like it should be a monster, lots of overlocking potential, the ram is fine TBH, maybe the PSU could be a bit beefier as someone put above, but if you have already ordered then have fun you lucky fella.
 
:)

Almost getting the exact same system, just a different case (Antec 900) and a Tuniq Tower for the CPU cooler.

Have fun with it.. should be ordering mine very soon :D

not everyone runs an oil company you know ;):D
 
Heh that's true but you never know, the urge to upgrade to a second card will probably creep in after a few months when prices drop. You can get away with a 700W Sparkle for SLI 8800GTX's on most systems, I believe those are similar money to the Seasonic's too?
 
I still can't believe i've gone ahead and done it.

last saturday i was speccing a system with 7900GTO or 7950GT and now iv'e spent an extra £400 :D whoops

Won't be telling the wife how much it cost.
